It's not easy to talk about Soredemo, Ikite Yuku. The drama has its own charm that can't be possibly seen in any other dramas. It's truly one of a kind. I am surprised by myself for not giving it 10 out of 10 even though it fits my taste perfectly. I just feel that the plot was lacking but I can't point out exactly what.

The plot is very simple, yet quite deep and complicated. It's a very slow-paced drama and it's kinda hard to get into it from the beginning. Yes, slow-pacing definitely fits this kind of storyline, but I can't deny that in the first few episodes I was just (im)patiently waiting for some progression with Fumiya's character. I was the most curious about him but he didn't appear much. The second half was much better, at times it was so intense that I felt as if I'm watching a thriller. There were so many moments that made me shiver, the characters always managed to shock me with their actions.

The biggest charm of this show is definitely the characters and how natural and realistic they are. I can a hundred percent say that I loved everyone of them - even Fumiya, who I lowkey wanted to kill because of some things he said. You can relate to every single character, you can feel their pain, you cry with them. One of the strongest, well-developed characters I've ever seen.

Fumiya was the most interesting character for me. I'm usually a person who tends to pity villians, but him... I just felt so angry watching him. I wish they had explained his twisted behaviour in a more detailed way. I can't talk much about him because I'm trying my best not to spoil.

The ending could have been better but it also could have been worse. It's not the ending you'd usually expect for a story like this and I think that's why a lot of people were dissatisfied with it.

The acting in Soredemo, Ikite Yuki is one of the best I've ever seen. Every actor was perfect for their role. Especially the three main leads and the actress who portrays the mother of Hiro. Mind-blowing performances which I will never forget.

Overall, I do recommend Soredemo, Ikite Yuki, but I'm warning you that the drama is very heavy and depressing. I still believe that everyone should check it out though. Maybe if you're going through somethings, Hiroki and Futaba will help you heal.
